Package source

BiocManager from CRAN

The reason for using BiocManager instead of biocLite() is mostly to stop sourcing an R script from URL which isn’t so safe. So biocLite() should not be recommended anymore.

It allows to have multiple versions of Bioconductor installed on the same computer. For example, R 3.5 works with Bioconductor 3.7 and 3.8.

On the other hand, setRepositories(ind=1:4) and install.packages() still lets you install Bioconductor packages.

Some packages

Biobase, GEOquery and limma

How to create an ExpressionSet object from scratch? Here we use the code from GEO2R to help to do this task.

library(Biobase)
library(GEOquery)
library(limma)

# Load series and platform data from GEO

gset <- getGEO("GSE32474", GSEMatrix =TRUE, AnnotGPL=TRUE)
if (length(gset) > 1) idx <- grep("GPL570", attr(gset, "names")) else idx <- 1
gset <- gset[[idx]]
# save(gset, file = "~/Downloads/gse32474_gset.rda")
# load("~/Downloads/gse32474_gset.rda")
table(pData(gset)[, "cell line:ch1"])
pData(gset)

# Create an ExpressionSet object from scratch
# We take a shortcut to obtain the pheno data and feature data matrices 
# from the output of getGEO()
phenoDat <- new("AnnotatedDataFrame",
                 data=pData(gset))
featureDat <- new("AnnotatedDataFrame",
                  data=fData(gset))
exampleSet <- ExpressionSet(assayData=exprs(gset),
                            phenoData=phenoDat,
                            featureData=featureDat,
                            annotation="hgu133plus2")
gset <- exampleSet

# Make proper column names to match toptable 
fvarLabels(gset) <- make.names(fvarLabels(gset))

# group names for all samples
gsms <- paste0("00000000111111111XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
               "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
               "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
               "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX")
sml <- c()
for (i in 1:nchar(gsms)) { sml[i] <- substr(gsms,i,i) }

# Subset an ExpressionSet by eliminating samples marked as "X"
sel <- which(sml != "X")
sml <- sml[sel]
gset <- gset[ ,sel]

# Decide if it is necessary to do a log2 transformation
ex <- exprs(gset)
qx <- as.numeric(quantile(ex, c(0., 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 0.99, 1.0), na.rm=T))

  (qx[6]-qx[1] > 50 && qx[2] > 0) ||
  (qx[2] > 0 && qx[2] < 1 && qx[4] > 1 && qx[4] < 2)
if (LogC) { ex[which(ex <= 0)] <- NaN
exprs(gset) <- log2(ex) }

# Set up the data and proceed with analysis
sml <- paste("G", sml, sep="")    # set group names
fl <- as.factor(sml)
gset$description <- fl
design <- model.matrix(~ description + 0, gset)
colnames(design) <- levels(fl)
